Giants Safety Antrel Rolle Dares QB’s To Throw At Him

Antrel Rolle has been quite the trash talker as of late.  The Giants secondary hasn't been the best so far this season, but that hasn't stopped Antrel Rolle from talking himself up.  He says he's a "ball hawk" and dares QB's to throw in his direction.

When asked how he sees himself as a Giant Antrel Rolle was pretty confident that he is a great NFL safety.  He says he's a ball hawk and is looking for QB's to challenge him more often.  He seems to be talking a big game but the number speak for themselves.

The G-Men's defense hasn't been so great as of late.  They have allowed an average of 40 points per game over the last three games.  Doesn't seem like he's doing much 'ball hawking'.

I do what I am told to do and I do it very effectively. If it was up to me, I would definitely be back deep, hunting the ball and doing what I love to do. But that is not what is required of me right now with the position and roles that I am playing. I have to do exactly how my defensive coordinator wants me to play and I have been doing it extremely well all season long.

Rolle has already guaranteed that the Giants will make the playoffs this year, but if that is going to happen he is going to need to step up his game, one that he already thinks is great.  Rolle does have 77 tackles this season, 10 short of his total from last season, but he doesn't have many interceptions.  So far when QB's throw at him, the receiver usually comes away with a catch.
